Transact-SQL syntax conventions

Syntax

sp_table_privileges
    [ @table_name = ] N'table_name'
    [ , [ @table_owner = ] N'table_owner' ]
    [ , [ @table_qualifier = ] N'table_qualifier' ]
    [ , [ @fUsePattern = ] fUsePattern ]
[ ; ]

[ @table_name = ] N'table_name'

The table used to return catalog information. @table_name is nvarchar(384), with no default. Wildcard pattern matching is supported.

[ @table_owner = ] N'table_owner'

The table owner of the table used to return catalog information. @table_owner is nvarchar(384), with a default of NULL. Wildcard pattern matching is supported. If the owner isn't specified, the default table visibility rules of the underlying DBMS apply.

If the current user owns a table with the specified name, the columns of that table are returned. If owner isn't specified and the current user doesn't own a table with the specified name, this procedure looks for a table with the specified table_name owned by the database owner. If one exists, the columns of that table are returned.

[ @table_qualifier = ] N'table_qualifier'

The name of the table qualifier. @table_qualifier is sysname, with a default of NULL. Various DBMS products support three-part naming for tables (qualifier.owner.name). In SQL Server, this column represents the database name. In some products, it represents the server name of the table's database environment.

[ @fUsePattern = ] fUsePattern

Determines whether the underscore (_), percent (%), and bracket ([ or ]) characters are interpreted as wildcard characters. Valid values are 0 (pattern matching is off) and 1 (pattern matching is on). @fUsePattern is bit, with a default of 1.

Return code values

None.

Result set

Column name Data type Description
TABLE_QUALIFIER sysname Table qualifier name. In SQL Server, this column represents the database name. This field can be NULL.
TABLE_OWNER sysname Table owner name. This field always returns a value.
TABLE_NAME sysname Table name. This field always returns a value.
GRANTOR sysname Database username that's granted permissions on this TABLE_NAME to the listed GRANTEE. In SQL Server, this column is always the same as the TABLE_OWNER. This field always returns a value. Also, the GRANTOR column might be either the database owner (TABLE_OWNER) or a user to whom the database owner granted permission by using the WITH GRANT OPTION clause in the GRANT statement.
GRANTEE sysname Database username that's been granted permissions on this TABLE_NAME by the listed GRANTOR. In SQL Server, this column always includes a database user from the sys.database_principalssystem view. This field always returns a value.
PRIVILEGE sysname One of the available table permissions. Table permissions can be one of the following values (or other values supported by the data source when implementation is defined):

SELECT = GRANTEE can retrieve data for one or more of the columns.

INSERT = GRANTEE can provide data for new rows for one or more of the columns.

UPDATE = GRANTEE can modify existing data for one or more of the columns.

DELETE = GRANTEE can remove rows from the table.

REFERENCES = GRANTEE can reference a column in a foreign table in a primary key/foreign key relationship. In SQL Server, primary key/foreign key relationships are defined with table constraints.

The scope of action given to the GRANTEE by a given table privilege is data source-dependent. For example, the UPDATE privilege might permit the GRANTEE to update all columns in a table on one data source and only those columns for which the GRANTOR has UPDATE privilege on another data source.
IS_GRANTABLE sysname Indicates whether or not the GRANTEE is permitted to grant permissions to other users (often referred to as "grant with grant" permission). Can be YES, NO, or NULL. An unknown (or NULL) value refers to a data source for which "grant with grant" isn't applicable.

Remarks

The sp_table_privileges stored procedure is equivalent to SQLTablePrivileges in ODBC. The results returned are ordered by TABLE_QUALIFIER, TABLE_OWNER, TABLE_NAME, and PRIVILEGE.

Permissions

Requires SELECT permission on the schema.

Examples

The following example returns privilege information about all tables with names beginning with the word Contact.

USE AdventureWorks2022;
GO
EXEC sp_table_privileges @table_name = 'Contact%';
